Contemporary Magazine Style Glamour Portraits

Initially, I decided to take part in Sumiko’s 50 over 50, because I had been to her launch for the previous one and had seen how beautiful her photo’s of the women were. I heard some of them speak at the launch event and how it had changed the way they saw themselves (through the lens of Sumi’s camera), hence changed their confidence and sense of self-worth. When I saw how she portrayed their individual personality and beauty I realised that Sumi had a special gift, that changed peoples lives!
Not only did Sumi take photos of me for her 50 over 50 project, she also offered to use the photoshoot to provide branding photo’s for my business. I am delighted with the outcome. Sumi is dedicated to her clients and her photography, as a true artist. She has a unique ability to know how to bring out the best in her subjects, and gently guides them to stand and “pose” in ways that are extraordinarily flattering to look stunning. I highly recommend Sumi, of Sumico Photography for any photos to provide memories for yourself, your family or your branding. Thank you so very much, Sumi. I love my photos. Karen XXX

Sumi has a winning combination of being very professional, yet down-to-earth. It was an absolute pleasure to be photographed by her, and the results were fantastic.

Sumico photography deserves more than 5 stars for an outstanding service. So happy to have found Sumi to capture my 29th birthday, All our photos are perfect, high quality and very professionally done!

Sumi was wonderful, funny, delightful and did the most fabulous job of making me enjoy having pictures done. I’m usually the one who hides from a camera so to say that I really enjoyed the experience is really something. I would recommend the beautiful Sumiko to anyone who wants to revel in feeling special and beautiful for a day. I will be encouraging my adult daughters to have a photo session with Sumi as a Christmas present this year, since I’ve told them what a fun day it was it shouldn’t be too hard to sell them on it…

Sumiko is a truly Talented Photographer! I have been lucky enough to be part of her 50 women over 50 project exhibition. Her meticulous care with taking my photos was outstanding and her creative flair with each photo was exceptional. If you want a brilliant photographer, I would highly recommend her. Get in quick before she gets too popular to book!

I had the most wonderful experience with Sumiko. She is very talented and was able to capture me to the fullest. I feel blessed to have been given the opportunity to look and feel beautiful.

Yes, Sumiko is a beautiful photographer makes you feel comfortable while shooting and helps you through the whole session.

Highly recommend Sumi as a talented, warm and wonderful woman and a highly skilled photographer. Thank you Sumi, you are amazing.

This outstanding project has been a phenomenal experience for me on a personal level. I have learned that I am much stronger than I thought I was. For the first time in my life, I am proud of me and proud of my achievements. I feel totally empowered.

I took part in Sumiko’s 50 over 50 project partly as I needed new head-shots for by Acting and Marriage Celebrancy businesses and partly because I thought it was a very interesting and inspiring project.
We had a preliminary meeting where I took what seemed to me almost my whole wardrobe to select 5 different looks.
On the day of the photo-shoot we went over the allotted 3 hours, partly because I had bought an extra gown that Sumiko said she would love to capture me in, but I never felt rushed.
Prior to the photo-shoot I had my hair and make up done by a professional make up artist and started to feel very glamorous.
I felt relaxed and at ease throughout the photo-shoot and had a great time chatting and being directed to pose.
I think we had a fun morning together, I know I did.
And, the photos were AMAZING. I had so many compliments that it has made me accept myself as others see me and graciously accept the compliments which resulted from the magic of the team of Sumico Photography, Ann Ricketts and Rita’s Makeup Artistry
Thank you Sumiko for a wonderful experience.

Not only was the preparation and attention to detail leading up to my photoshoot outstanding… but the make-up, hair and styling was phenomenal. Sumiko is an extraordinary photographer who has you feeling at ease and she takes the time to understand who are are and what makes you happy. The results of my shoot were absolutely stunning. Thank you very much – Deborah

Sumi creates a customized photoshoot for me. I am not a dancer, but I like to dance a lot and she was able to guide me all the way long to create amazing portraits. I trust her with two creative photoshoots during my stay in Australia, and I was delighted by the result. She is creative, she listen your need and she is one of the most kind human being I know. You feel at home in her studio and her makeup team make you feel like a million buck. She has got tulle, lot of props and outfits… You can let her know what you desire and she will create something that suits who you are. I love the photographies she created for me as much as the experience. As a fellow photographer, I was honored to have my photographies taken by her and if you do not know who to adress in Brisbane/Gold coast area, give your trust to Sumi. – Lily
